Physicians can be faced with violent or threatening patients where a strategic approach can include assessing for contributing factors, as well as pharmacological and nonpharmacological measures. Inadvertent risks to physicians include exposure to body fluids and needle sticks. Precautions have advanced along with our understanding of transmissible disease. Patients can be subjected to harm. As the systems of delivery and diagnostic and treatment modailities become more complex, the opportunity for medical errors can flourish. Individual errors and system failures can result in serious adverse events or near-misses. Hospital-acquired conditions can be infectious or noninfectious and generally have a deleterious effect on outcomes, cost, and length of stay. Evolving health care policy and hospital practices aim to reduce the potential for harm. ++ VIOLENT OR THREATENING PATIENT ++ CASE 2-1 A 65-year-old man with bipolar disorder, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, prolonged QT interval, and diabetes mellitus presented to the emergency department with headache and vision loss. He was found to have a subacute ischemic stroke. The night following admission, he became agitated and threatening toward staff. He screamed and repeatedly punched the walls. He lacked decisional capacity, and no family members could be reached. Repeated attempts by staff and the on-call physician were made to calm him, but he remained aggressive. ++ Background ++ Workplace violence is a problem in many industries, but hospital workers have the highest rates of nonfatal workplace assault injuries. Most are violent acts committed by patients toward staff.1,2 50% of healthcare workers will be a victim of work-place violence during their careers.1 Nurses, mental health professionals, and security staff are at greatest risk.2 ++ What are contributing factors to violent or threatening patients? ++ Neurological, psychiatric, and genetic disorders, and drug abuse can predispose to aggressive behavior(Table 2-1).3,4 Social factors can also contribute. Identify contributing factors early to mitigate risk. ++Table Graphic Jump LocationTable 2-1. Predisposing Factors to Violent Behavior View Table|Favorite Table|Download (.pdf) Table 2-1. Predisposing Factors to Violent Behavior Neurologic Delirium Dementia Seizures Traumatic brain injury Focal intracranial lesions (eg, neoplasm, stroke) Psychiatric Substance abuse Schizophrenia Post-traumatic stress disorder Oppositional defiant disorder Intermittent explosive disorders Dissociative disorders Antisocial and borderline personality disorders Conduct disorder Intellectual disability Social History Poor social support Childhood abuse or neglect Prior violence Low socioeconomic status Medication noncompliance ++ What are nonpharmacological strategies to deal with violent or threatening patients? ++ Environmental elements should be controlled, such as physician and staff attitudes and patient comfort. Offering blankets or refreshments, and relative isolation in a private quiet room can be considered.1,2 Physicians and staff must be vigilant about their surroundings, body language, and exit locations.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 149416
rawhide version compares as 'older' than fc3 update version
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:11:00 EST
In prep for a smooth upgrade to fc4t1.. the version in rawhide needs
to be adjusted to look newer than the fc3 update version. Both yum and
up2date see the rawhide version as 'older'. Even anaconda upgrades
might be affected if users are using custom yum or up2date configs
which are not disabled by anaconda 'magic'.
dhcpv6_client-0.10-11 in rawhide
compares as older than
dhcpv6_client-0.10-11_FC3 in fc3 updates.
This is now fixed: dhcpv6-0.10-11_FC4 submitted to FC4 .
I'm closing this as resolved rawhide.

A burst of inspiration that is. The infamous day was November 8th, 2016 (technically November 9th by the time the votes were in) when the "impossible" happened. For many reasons, it is a day I won't ever forget. As I prepare to watch President Obama's farewell speech tonight, I'm recognizing that it is a day that has left me in a state of disbelief for the past two months….has it only been two months? Are we not nearing the 4 year mark yet?
Just to name it and face my fear that if I write it down it makes it real: November 8th, 2016 was the day Donald Trump defeated Hillary Clinton to become President-elect of the United States.
The entire election season was enlightening to say the least. I spoke more candidly about my beliefs, read more commentary than I ever had, and realized my vote isn't my only source of political power. After a tumultuous buildup, the results of the election shook me to the core.
These past few months I've been looking for ways both formally and informally to be more active in the community and in projects I'm passionate about protecting. New Year's came along and an active resolution came to me. In my first year in New York, I read more for pleasure than I have possibly since middle school. So I decided to turn this hobby into something more, something I could learn from, something I could pay forward.
It's simple really. Each month I am reading at least one autobiography or non-fiction/non-fiction inspired piece written by a woman throughout 2017. I took to Facebook for suggestions and was overwhelmed by the response. There are so many amazing women I can learn from.
I started with Elizabeth Warren's "A Fighting Chance" and after only a few pages I became emotional reading her story. After getting through a large portion of the book, I decided I wanted to share my journey moving through my readings. So here we are. I plan to document at least my overall thoughts on each book, but I also want to share my thoughts on specific anecdotes and life lessons from the books through the lens of a young woman currently figuring out how to navigate this thing called life.
Even though we can't herald this as the year of the woman because we're being led by one, women have been a part of history since the first chapter and we can still use this year to grow, to be active, and to learn just what women can do (spoiler: the answer is women can do anything.) I hope to start conversations. I hope to share different perspectives. And most of all I hope to remind those who read my thoughts that no matter where we come from we all have a unique story worth being told.

Rows of nutmeg trees greeted Shebi Arun as she was ushered into her husband's house on her wedding day. Arun's family feasted on the fruit cultivated for its flavorful seed and seed covering. They ground the fruit into chutney, pickled it and even fermented it to a heady wine. Yet, the produce was way more than the family could consume.
Shebi was more into literature than cuisine but she wanted to try out something with the abundant produce. The graduate in English literature turned to the internet for inspiration. Surprise! She could not find many recipes using nutmeg fruit though the seed was an essential spice in hundreds of recipes.
Shebi, originally from Arpookkara near Kottayam, knew of nutmeg's reputation as a home remedy for indigestion. She decided to try out the fruit in various ways. Out came from her kitchen nutmeg syrup, juice, pickles, chutney powder, jelly, jam, pudding, cake, toffee, burfi and other sweetmeats. Her relatives and friends were in awe. The positive feedback encouraged the new cook to make it into a business.
Kitchen laboratory
Nutmegs came king size in Arun's house. Arun's father K.T. Mathew owned a nursery at Pinnakkanad near Bharananganam. The trees bloom five times a year.
Shebi bought back the nutmeg pericarps from her father-in-law's customers, who were only interested in the spices. Anyway, none used the fleshy part except to grind chutney.
Shebi processed the fruit before adding it to her own recipes. The initial trials were not easy. She had to test the processed food ingredient in a lab multiple times until she got it right. Once she got the process right, she could use it to make cakes and jelly.
She also realized that her jams and syrups tasted different in accordance with the breed of the tree and the volume of the essence. She made a lot of products. She even made a herbal brew but desisted from marketing it because it was slightly alcoholic.
She took her products to market under the brand name 'Shebs'. They found a niche customer base as they did not carry any preservatives or food color. She chose not to use plastic containers for her products. Initially, she set up a sales outlet at the family nursery. Now, she has a license from the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI).
The 36-year-old mother of four said she could earn Rs 20,000 per month from her business.
A fine balance
Nutmeg's exotic quality is matched by the difficulty level of its preparation. Each product demands a different method of processing nutmegs. Shebi's unit processes up to 70 kilos of nutmeg fruits a day, by steaming, boiling or frying it.
She runs the processing unit from the outhouse of her house at Bharananganam with the help of two employees.
She just started her second sales outlet in the family nursery at Mannuthy.
The Shebs line of products has a lower shelf life because they are bereft of preservatives. They have to be stored in coolers. So the entrepreneur keeps a strict leash on production to match it with the pace of consumption.
She sells her products through some shops dedicated to homemade products apart from the Kerala Agricultural Development Society's shop in Ernakulam, Chaithanya in Kottayam and a shop in Moovattupuzha. She supplies the products along with the coolers.
She has not given online sales any serious thought because it would need cold chain logistics. The next items on her list are nutmeg vinegar and a ready-to-drink beverage. She also plans to start another outlet in the Mangalapuram nursery.
Road ahead
If business picks up, she might start a modest factory.
"I did not have any big plans when I started. I was waiting for people's reactions. Now I get have orders from faraway places. I am happy that the business has picked up," Shebi said.
Shebi and Arun have four children. Ruth is in the eight standard, Miriam in the third standard, Martin in kindergarten and Sara in playschool.
Shebi said anyone could start a small business if they had access to five or six nutmeg trees. For starters, she would recommend pickles.
Never compromise on quality, she said. Test your products in the government or private labs in Ernakulam. Wannabe entrepreneurs can buy driers, mixers and juicers through self-employment loans. Start modestly.

The penguins arrive home from sea just after sunset,
at the moment our Evening Viewing begins at 5.45pm
Visitors have the opportunity to enjoy our new day experience with lots of interaction, education and information on our research and monitoring programmes. Find out what goes on behind the scenes at the Colony, learn more about our penguins, play and discover in our brand new children's area, before heading outdoors to explore the penguins' nesting environment.
In our specially-designed viewing room there are 10 nesting boxes that visitors can look down into and see the penguins inside. Our penguins are wild of course and sometimes might all be at sea during the day, so outside of the breeding season we cannot always guarantee birds will be home. When the penguins are breeding, particularly from August until February, there are always penguins home incubating eggs, raising chicks or moulting.
The daytime viewing activity is self-guided, however we do have a guide on hand to answer your questions.
Entry into the day viewing area begins at 10am, continues throughout the day, and ends approximately 60 minutes before dusk.
Photography and filming without flash is allowed in the colony but not in the viewing room.
Visitors are seated in an outdoor viewing area where they listen to an informative commentary about our blue penguins.
The birds return home from their days fishing, make their way onto the beach, up a stony ramp, and cross into the Colony. This happens at different times during the year as daylight/nightlight change. During the summer months Evening Viewing is as late as 9:00 pm while during the winter our birds are arriving home as early as 5:30 pm. Arrival numbers vary from Summer to Winter from up to 180 birds in the summer to under 30 in Winter. From when the first bird arrives, it takes approx an hour for all the birds to return.
Running time : 1-1.5 hours.

This sabbatical took me from Auschwitz in Poland to the rock and sands of Death Valley. From a Buddhist monastery in Trout Lake, Washington to the stunning and empty beaches of Molokai. Then to the desert lands of New Mexico that Georgia O'Keefe inhabited. It has been a gift. I come back entering the month of April and its theme of transformation, transformed. Every place I encountered worked on me, opening me to quiet, allowing me "to remember what the soul never forgets."
I carried the beaded necklace you made for me and blessed me with before I left. I have pictures of it in every place I was. Though I carried the necklace with me and all that it meant, I did not carry the daily and ongoing work of the church. If the community learned as much about itself as I did about myself during this sabbatical time, we are all in good shape.
Perhaps the most important lesson I learned during this sabbatical came in the first few weeks as I decompressed: to give you my best, I cannot give you all of me. Though I came of ministerial age when the model was for ministers to work 50-80 hours a week and at a time when a minister and their spouse was seen as a "twofer," I have come to believe that that model is not only outdated but harmful to clergy, their partners and families, and the churches they serve.
When you literally wander deserts for a period of time without electronics, internet or access to news 24/7, your mind, body, and spirit slow down and become present to just the moment. The combination of sun, wind, and building heat and then the sudden drop of temperature to just above freezing, demand a body awareness that is not necessary in the Pacific Northwest. Huge open space and sky become the visual norm. As do two lane main roads. And a lack of people. One watches the sunset brush color on rock and clouds. Without light pollution from cities, the night sky reveals itself without a veil. The coyotes have their way with the night and the doves greet each morning in song. The landscape both distracts and wipes away all distraction, leaving one exposed, unable to hide from one's self.
The pace of our lives can be great hiding places. The rapidity at which we live our lives and the clutter of activities that we fill them with can serve not to fulfill but to lose ourselves. How many of us are so exhausted at the end of the day that we unwind electronically and sometimes, mindlessly? How many of us say that we have no time in our schedules to do the most basic tasks of self-care such as feeding ourselves real food, sitting down at a table with family or friends? Or going for a walk or moving one's body in some way? Or taking even 5 minutes just to stop and be still, taking the internal temperature of our hearts and minds? And spiritual practice? Guess what, it ain't just for monks in the deserts.
A clergy person who was part of a workshop I took at Ghost Ranch in New Mexico said the following: "I have learned to say and value my 'No.' If I can say and trust my 'No,' then I know that when I say 'Yes,' I am doing so with integrity, energy, and authenticity."
I have always maintained that Unitarian Universalism's values and ethics, principles and purposes, are radical in today's culture. I would like it to push that radicalism further by refusing and resisting the pace and vacuousness of mainstream culture. I would like it to tear through cultural norms that leave us depleted, despairing, and too distracted to even remember who we are. I would hope that it could be a kind of desert for many of us, where instead of hiding our true selves, we dare to know them.
I come back to you carrying the deserts within me. They have reminded me of who I am and of what my soul remembers.
With gratitude,
Rev. Lo

You would certainly say "This must be Croatia" - it is! Typical - a restaurant.
We are in Zagreb, the capital of Croatia.
This is called 'raznjici' - very typical - pieces of grilled meat on woodden sticks
This is the center of Zagreb, capitcal of Croatia,
The cafés are very traditional
I am always taken aback by the many cafés in the streets - hundreds
Hotel Dubrovnik - I liked the reflections.
I can see this from our terrace where I am stitching.
The clouds mean bad weather on the continent.
It is still too cold to swim.

Victoria Falls
Fast Facts
Victoria Falls is over 100m (330ft) tall, 1.7km (1 mile) in length and has 550 million litres (23 million gallons) of water pouring over the edge every minute. Boasting impressive credentials, this natural wonder of the world is quite simply, the experience of a lifetime.
The Smoke that Thunders
The Victoria Falls constitutes one of the most spectacular natural wonders of the world. The Local people call it "Mosi-oa-Tunya" -- the smoke that thunders, Victoria Falls is the latter name given by Europeans. There is a magic about them, manifested in the towering column of spray when the river is high, the thunder of the falling water, the terrifying abyss and tranquil lagoons upstream in which hippo and deadly crocodiles lurk.
Beautifully positioned lodges are nestled along the banks of the Zambezi River offering views of the mighty Falls, while the Vic Falls area is an excellent destination to combine with a real African safari.
Although Victoria Falls constitute neither the highest nor the widest waterfall in the world, the claim it is the largest is based on a width of 1.7 kilometres (1 mi) and height of 108 meters (360 ft), making it the largest curtain of water in the world. It drops between 90m and 107m into the Zambezi Gorge and an average of 550,000 cubic metres of water plummet over the edge every minute.

Remarkably preserved in its natural state, Victoria Falls inspires visitors as much today as it did David Livingstone in the 1860's. The Falls and the surrounding area have been declared National Parks and a World Heritage Site, thus preserving the area from excessive commercialisation. The unusual form of Victoria Falls enables virtually the whole width of the falls to be viewed face-on, at the same level as the top, from as close as 60 metres (200 ft), because the whole Zambezi River drops into a deep, narrow slot like chasm, connected to a long series of gorges. Few other waterfalls allow such a close approach on foot. But to fully appreciate the incredible size of the Falls, and the awesome power of the water as it carves into the deep zig zagging gorges for eight kilometres, one must see it from the air. Micro-light and fixed wing flights are available. The pilot will take you along the wide tranquil upper Zambezi, and over the huge 2 km dent in the earth. The breathtaking sight of this magnificent, natural phenomenon, seen in all its glory from the air, is truly unforgettable.
With Victoria Falls as a backdrop, another unforgettable experience would have to be bungee jumping from the Victoria Falls Bridge, arguably the best bungee jump in the world, with a 111 metre plummet towards the Zambezi River, with an estimated free fall of around 8 seconds. If you're looking for high octane adrenaline coursing through your veins then this is definitely the rush for you. Alternatively you can try your hand at white water rafting, with the water levels rising and falling throughout the year, there are easy and hard rapids for everyone. Regarded as the world's greatest white water rafting adventure, rafting down the mighty Zambezi, is an experience like none other. Beginning with a walk down the gorge, right next to the Victoria Falls Bridge, you will then walk upstream to where the rafts are launched. From here you will be able to view the Falls from a very different perspective, as well as brave people swan diving from the bridge in the bungee harness.
The Victoria Falls Bridge was commissioned by Cecil John Rhodes in 1900, although he never visited the falls and died before construction began, he expressed his wish that the "railway should cross the Zambezi just below the Victoria Falls. I should like to have the spray of the falls over the carriages." The bridge affords a magnificent view both down the gorge on the one side and through to the falls on the other. The immense depth of the gorge can be fully appreciated from this perspective and combined with the sea green river below, the shiny black rock face and lush green foliage, the 360 degree view from the bridge is breathtaking. Many of Africa's animals and birds can be seen in the immediate vicinity of Victoria Falls, and the continent's range of river fish is also well represented in the Zambezi, enabling wildlife viewing and sport fishing to be combined with sightseeing.
The Victoria Falls area is a favorite among everyone at Perfect Africa. Contact any one of our Travel Experts to find out more about the area, the accommodation, or the tours and safaris in the region. Their in-depth knowledge will help you to plan and book the ultimate safari vacation.
Adventure Capital »
Victoria Falls's claim to be the adventure Capital of Africa is well founded and the adrenalin junky will find a huge range of exciting activities at their disposal here. The vast majority of activities centre around the Victoria Falls and the Zambezi River although they are not purely limited to these two great entities. One can raft rapids in the zigzagging chasm downstream of the Falls, known as the Batoka Gorge, or canoe calmer stretches of the Upper Zambezi. For the adventurous (and quite possibly slightly insane!) traveller, a whole of challenges await, from 111 metre bungee jump off the Victoria Falls Brigde to 'river boarding' down the rapids on body boards! Other slightly less energetic but no less thrilling activities include helicopter and micro light flights over the Falls as well as hot air balloon rides and game drives in the National Park.
Wonder of the World »
There are few appropriate superlatives that have not already been applied to this magnificent natural wonder of the world; in many ways it defies description. So vast are the Falls and their setting that it is difficult to grasp their true grandeur and for this reason, they are perhaps best seen from the air. The Victoria Falls offer an inescapable closeness to the natural elements. The towering column of spray when the river is high, the thunder of the falling water, the terrifying abyss that separates Zimbabwe from Zambia. David Livingstone reported the existence of the Falls to the outside world in 1860. The result was immediate and from that point, the number of foreign visitors rose steadily.
Insider tips
Fly like an angel over the falls in either an aircraft, helicopter, microlight, hot-air balloon or parachute.
Combine a stay at the Falls with a number of safari options close by.
Wear a waterproof jacket when you visit the Falls, the spray can be immense on any given day!
Visit Livingstone Island which is perched on the very lip of the Falls and provides a very unique perspective.
Go whitewater Rafting down the Batoka Gorge at the Victoria Falls.
Spot Zambia's only white rhino in the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park.
Zambia's rich cultural heritage can be experienced through art, music, dance and food at the Maramba Cultural Village.
Take a sunset cruise along the Zambezi River.
When to travel
Victoria Falls are impressive year-round.
When the Zambezi reaches peak flood (Mar - Apr), the clouds of thick spray look spectacular from the air, but close-up views on foot can be obscured.
Views of the magnificent rock formation at the Falls improve in later months until the low water period (Sep - Nov). The low water period is when river rafting is most exciting!
During the low water period you are able to walk to Livingstone Island.
When the river is low, 23 rapids in Batoka Gorge can be rafted. During high water (Feb - Jul), only the last 13 rapids are navigable.
Getting there
There are daily flights from Johannesburg directly into both Livingstone Airport and Victoria Falls Airport. Each flight takes approximately 2 hours.
From either Livingstone or Victoria Falls Airport you are a short road transfer away from the lodges / hotels at the Falls.
Travelling to and from Botswana from Victoria Falls is also very easy with daily flights into Kasane.
Chobe National Park is a quick road transfer away.

Carson: Two Killed, Two Injured in 405 Freeway Crash
Comments (0)
At about 2:15 a.m. on Saturday, July 26, 2014, two people were killed and two were injured in a crash on the 405 Freeway in Carson, reported the Los Angeles Times. While traveling southbound, the 20-year-old male driver of a 1995 Toyota Camry veered to the right and collided with the left front side of a semi near the Avalon Boulevard exit. The driver lost control of the Toyota and crashed into a metal guardrail, which caused the car to overturn. Killed in the crash were the driver and a 16-year-old female passenger. An 18-year-old male passenger sustained moderate injuries and a 16-year-old female passenger suffered major trauma.
Motor vehicle collisions claimed the lives of or caused injury to 319 people in Carson in 2011, according to the California Office of Traffic Safety's most current crash statistics. Carson ranked 54th out of 102 cities with populations of between 50,001 and 250,000 in a rating system in which 1st place is considered the worst. None of the victims of fatal and injury crashes that year were under the age of 21.
When a driver's negligence results in a fatal or injury accident, the victims or their families may pursue personal injury or wrongful death claims against the driver in order to obtain compensation for the expenses associated with their recoveries or losses. For more information, please call 888-752-7474 or contact us online.
All of us at Allen, Flatt, Ballidis, and Leslie would like to offer our condolences to the families of the young man and woman who were killed in this crash. We would like to wish a full recovery to the young man and woman who were injured.

Nintendo's Mobile Adapter GB still hasn't been released yet (currently set for a January 27th shipdate in Japan), but there are a bunch of games ¿ other than Pokémon Crystal -- that are being made for the device's multiplayer functions.
Mobile Golf was one of the first games to be announced for the Mobile Adapter GB back at Nintendo's Space World event in August 2000 ¿ essentially a reworking of the company's existing Mario Golf sans the Mario characters. While the game still doesn't have a release date, Nintendo has announced a new name for the game -- Golf Land.
Many of the game's features are still unknown for Golf Land¿ especially how it will support the mobile adapter. Expect multiplayer, remote foursomes from anywhere that you can call with a Japanese cellphone. But the game might also support downloadable data ¿ such as full-blown golf courses for when they become available.
The Mobile Adapter GB is a device (currently for Japan gamers only) that enables network support for Game Boy games through the use of a cell phone. There has been no announcement for a US launch...yet.

At last, nod for shifting students from Pathankot medical college
Pending since 2014, the go-ahead to shift 141 final-year students of Pathankot's Chintpurni Medical College came on Monday, finally, from the medical education and research department.punjab Updated: Mar 28, 2016 23:18 IST
Pending since 2014, the go-ahead to shift 141 final-year students of Pathankot's Chintpurni Medical College came on Monday, finally, from the medical education and research department.
The students have been divided equally among three government colleges and six private institutions. "The list mentioning the respective place of readmission was sent to the Chintpurni college management on Monday and we expect the shifting to be over within a week," said Dr Raj Bahadur, vice-chancellor of Baba Farid University of Health Sciences, Faridkot, who heads the transfer process.
The principals of all the colleges that are to adjust these students were called for a meeting in Chandigarh on Monday, where they were handed the list in the presence of Dr Raj Bahadur and medical education and research director Dr Manjit Kaur Mohi. "Of the 141 students, 43 already appeared for the final examination at Chintpurni College last December. They will only undergo the mandatory internship at the new colleges, and the rest will attend final-year classes until the end of this year," said Dr Raj Bahadur. The interns will only pay the migration fee to the new colleges. The rest will pay the existing fee based on quota allotted in the original college.
"Students selected under government quota will be readmitted to private colleges in same category and pay the fee accordingly," explained Dr Mohi. She said the list mentioned how many students were joining under the government and management quotas, for which the fee structure is different. Those being admitted to government colleges will pay their last-year fee accordingly.
Worry for students joining Gian Sagar
Of the shifted students, 18 have been adjusted in Gian Sagar Medical College, where classes are suspended for the past one month of protest by teachers and non-teaching employees, who have not been paid for six months. The scheduled meeting between the medical education secretary and the college management could not take place on Monday.
Medical education secretary Hussan Lal confirmed that the college management had been called for another meeting with minister Anil Joshi in the next two-three days, "where their exact payoff to staff will be discussed". "In case they fail to honour their commitment, we have other ways of putting things in order. We can't let Gian Sagar students suffer the fate of Chintpurni College students," he added.
Shift explained
In 2014, the first batch of Chintpurni Medical College students (admitted in 2011) began their protest to seek transfer after intake was barred in the years 2012-13, 2013-14, 2015-16. Students feared that their degrees wouldn't be legitimate.
After a long legal battle that began with the Punjab and Haryana high court directions in September 16, 2014, these students are finally being shifted now. This January, the high court imposed a fine of `1 lakh on the Medical Council of India (MCI), while hearing the contempt petition filed by the students.

There is no doubt the level of passion muscle car owners have when it comes to their pride and joy. These timeless classics that are original, restored or even slightly modified carry the same principals when engine maintenance is brought into the equation. The original factory spec. oils for these cars are not necessarily the best products available today. Now with the reverse compliance products available, oils and additives carry the correct properties with far greater technology for these older engines that were not an option back in the day.
Preserving not only the life of the car, but also the overall performance of a solid Australian and American muscle car is always a priority, so the use of a quality grade oil together with premium oil and fuel additives is essential. Older factory performance engines will benefit greatly from the use of additives, whether it's an Anti-Friction Engine treatment, oil flush or even fuel cleaner, maintaining these service areas can make all the difference in the world when it comes to having your muscle car perform how it should.

Taxes draw tea-party politics
Pro-tax, anti-tax protesters rally
By Nancy Remsen, Free Press Staff Writer
MONTPELIER — Kathy Kilcourse of Montpelier arrived at the building housing the Department of Taxes shortly before 10 Wednesday morning to join a small crowd declaring their willingness to pay a bit more in taxes to save state programs.
She signed a mock tax form listing 17 "essential state programs and services" that the sponsors of the gathering — the Save Our State Coalition — want to spare from budget cuts during the economic downturn. The form said that if the average Vermont taxpayer paid just a dollar a month, all the listed services could continue. The services cited included keeping the courts open full time, maintaining frontline human service workers and continuing the cleanup of Lake Champlain.
"We can all afford some extra taxes," Kilcourse said. "I signed up because I think it is really outrageous that the governor is trying to solve the budget crisis on the back of low-income Vermonters," she said. She works with Vermonters who have AIDS and rely on state services. "If everyone pays a little bit more, we can get through this."
A pro-tax gathering — followed by a larger, louder noon anti-tax rally outside the Statehouse — came on the annual deadline for filing federal and state income taxes. They also occurred just hours before the Vermont House of Representatives debated and gave final approval to a tax bill by a vote of 82-54.
The legislation, which still must be considered by the Senate, would add a surcharge to the state income tax effective for the current tax year. Republicans tried to strip out the tax without success. Gov. Jim Douglas has repeatedly expressed his opposition to any new taxes.
Joeie Clark of Fairfax joined a lunch-hour crowd of more than 300 attending a Tax Day Tea Party on the lawn in front of the Statehouse to make a different point about taxes.
"When times get tough, we should cut back," said Clark, who had brought a big American flag to wave. "We are struggling. Higher taxes, for me, aren't the answer."
Clark said she and her husband took their children out of school because the issues that were the focus of the rally — unchecked spending and increasing taxes — would affect them. "My kids and their children are going to be paying for this mess."
Many of the speakers and attendees at this Tea Party took aim at the Obama administration and federal stimulus spending. Similar Tea Parties took place across the country, including an evening anti-tax gathering in Rutland.
"We would just like our representatives to know we are unhappy with the bailout," said Jody Carey of Berlin. "They just keep spending, and they are going to put us all in bankruptcy."
Vince Scheck drove from Newfane for the Montpelier Tea Party because he said it was time for people to speak up. He wore a red, white and blue top hat with tea bags stapled to the brim. "I can't afford any new taxes," the retiree said.
Jessica Bernier, organizer of the Tea Party, told the crowd the rally needed to be a beginning, not an end. "We can no longer be apathetic about what happens in Montpelier and Washington.
"Folks, this didn't happen overnight," Bernier continued. "For the most part we have been sleeping and we allowed this to happen."
Christopher Curtis, a lawyer with Vermont Legal Aid and one of the organizers of the Save Our State tax pledge initiative, also hoped to energize Vermonters who care about the work of state government. "These forms are out all over the state.
"Vermont is such a small community. Once you know somebody who is affected by these cuts, Vermonters are willing to help," Curtis said. He criticized the mantra of "no new taxes," noting that with a modest investment from taxpayers — a few dollars a month — a host of critical services could be maintained.
"We can all pitch in together and solve this budget crisis," Curtis said.
Late Wednesday, the House debated a proposed surcharge on the income tax to raise $16.6 million to cover expenses in the budget the House passed last week.
House Republican Leader Patti Komline, R-Dorset, said the surcharge wouldn't be needed if lawmakers had tightened the belt of state spending a few more notches.
Rep. Greg Clark, R-Vergennes, proposed deleting the surcharge from the tax bill, calling it unconscionable in the current economic crisis.
Rep. Richard Marek, D-Newfane, said the way to judge the surcharge was to look at how it would affect the average Vermonter and whether it was worth doing.
"Three cents a day is the cost of this surcharge on the average Vermonter making $38,000 a year," Marek said. He asked if it was worth 3 cents a day to avoid closing all the state's rest areas, eliminating a subsidized prescription drug program for low-income elderly, shutting fish hatcheries, closing courts for 12 days a year.
"It might not sound like a lot of money," countered Rep. Joseph Krawczyk, R-Bennington. "But collectively what we are asking our taxpayers to pay?" he asked, citing several other taxes and fees. "It all adds up."

Chuckster, probably not.
I know there's no chance for an old middle aged guy shooting a home made longbow... Fun to look, though:)
That's cuz your vision is 20/100. At best.
Point is... just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you need to express it. It's a good lesson to learn in life actually. Another good thing is to figure out the difference between your opinion and fact. A corralary to this is that stating your opinion as fact doesn't make it so.
Brotsky x2!
You didn't. Your replies make it crystal clear you don't see an appreciable difference between the two, however. Your derisive comments about Midwesterners are also amusing and further clarify things. As for the picture of your wife- save it, I'm not interested. My unsophisticated Midwestern eye likely couldn't appreciate your NYC, city girl.
Wasting key strokes on someone of your ego and lack of insight is an exercise in futility. Enjoy NYC and all of the beautiful people.
Brotsky- I'm doing all I can to follow in your footsteps with my little Morgan. Next year I hope to get her turkey hunting with a vertical bow. Then maybe deer in the Fall. However, she lacks the patience her brother has, so we'll see about that...
Crossbow guys are known for their poor judgement.
Go visit Bigpizzaman's sheep slam thread and rather than comment about the rams or the hardships of his hunts, start bickering about what he scores on the man scale. Sheesh
Here's what I don't understand. Half or more of you guys bitch about folks naming deer yet not one of you has commented on that.
And yes, I've spent plenty of time in the City, as well as most major cities in the US and elsewhere. I was a "jet-setter" in big business for 30 years. Women just seem to look better in NYC because of the ugliness surrounding them.
BTW your ignorant comment about her not turning any heads? Look at the picture Einstein, she is clearly turning that bucks head towards the camera and GOOD FOR HER!
It is very cool that women are participating more in outdoor sports such as hunting and fishing. We need the diversity in the future.

Charlie - I agree 100% as a father of a beautiful daughter who hunts.
My wife doesn't hunt. Would I enjoy it if she did? Absolutely. What could be better than sharing that joy with my wife? You're worried about the cost? Yikes.
I also have a daughter who is 3. I'll make sure she never ends up in NYC.
And if she wants to hunt I will 110% be along for the ride, but we ain't naming no damn deer either!
When you read through the posts some of the undertone essentially boils all that a woman is down to a decimal on a number scale just ain't right. One comment here or there I don't think anyone really cares about, it's when the argument starts to go back and forth it reads as though some men really don't appreciate the human that a woman is. The joking became serious. As if to say they're worthless or nothing if they aren't the perfect picture of beauty. Eva Shockey has a nose that you don't like, so then the undertone of the comments is just "toss her to the side," or "who really gives a rip about her." Again, I think it's tough to say exactly what is wrong with the above, but when you read serious undertones about belittling a woman down to a number or because of a physical characteristic she has, it is bothersome. Women struggle so mightily with their physical appearance, I can't imagine the scores of women who come on bowsite and never comment. Now they hear people comment about a beautiful woman like Eva Shockey being "not worth looking at" and thinking of themselves as less than her, and then really getting down on themselves. There is so much pressure on women to look as amazing as fake magazine photos, and I do not think any woman would be uplifted by reading this thread.
I guarantee you there are women who wish they could look like Eva, and then guys say "oh how could you think she's beautiful cause of her schnoz" or whatever the heck the retarded comment above was, and then they are even more down on themselves.
Listen, I don't think any dude is above admiring women, heck maybe you even use a number to describe how beautiful they are, whatever. It's when people start DEGRADING women down to a number as if that's all they are to them I think it becomes a problem. My opinion anyways.
If I had a daughter I would not want a bunch of men reducing her to a numerical rating system. While I like Forest's wife, who is beautiful, presentation of looking like a person would be expected to look as a hunter, women who choose to look more glamorous with make-up, nails, hairdos etc. while participating in outdoor activities are just recognizing the fact that it is a male driven market and that is what we are looking for. They realize they must get noticed, and men really drive that reality.
Maybe I am getting old, but I was jealous of the bucks before I looked at the hunter. Or maybe I am just happily married to the right woman!
Good story, she stuck with it and got it done. Hope she has the same happen with her music career, good luck.
LOL! "Forrest out kicked his coverage...." that was funny, I don't care who ya are....... heheheheh....
1st) the 208 hours she spent hunting that deer, which I find interesting. I've personally never counted hours before, but I've kept track of days/ sits. Why the 208 hours detail? Is it to validate her dedication in the eyes of scrutinizing men? (Guilty myself - see my next point of pondering)
2nd) The other thing I wondered is if she hung the treestands, and or did the scouting?
I get that we need to embrace women in the hunting community, I'm all for it. They're one of, if not the fastest growing demographic in the "industry". With that said though its hard not to feel like, for some women, it is largely done for the attention. I.e.: instagram and fb selfies, and trophy photo posts in full makeup etc. Are they really doing it for themselves? If no outlet for pictures, or social media existed would they still do it? Did they do the work leading up to the kill? Did their boyfriend, family, spouse, or some gullible (sucker) who thinks hes gonna get lucky post them up in the treestand or blind- all for the instagram pic? I realize the social media thing goes the same for guys too.... some thrive on the attention.
Just took a young woman hunting that works for me and got her a deer. She also has worked in a deer processing factory before she worked for me, and is a real "cut up". Won't ever be posting a picture of her with a deer on this forum. Not worth it with the way some people flippantly respond to that. You may call it hilarious, I call it never leaving Jr. High behind. If you want to delve into how social media affects things why don't you discuss that: The fact that some men find it amusing to get on an internet forum and act like a 6th grader. But hey, its only on the internet, right??
The video I want to see is one of everyone's wife (and/or daughter) reading this thread. Me suspects they would not find it that hilarious
Good grief. Little wonder anybody posts anything. The negatives are lined up ready to take shots. I could have done that too. They had money. Leased land. Auction tags. Trail cams. Named the deer. High tech equipment. Too far a shot. Bad angle. Food plots. Guided. Should have passed that animal. Had to fill a tag. Had to kill something. Drew a lucky tag. Took a bad shot. Got lucky on a bad shot. Just got lucky period. Shouldn't have been hunting in the rain..... etc, etc.....
The fewer people that post hunts here the poorer we all are for it. If a hunt doesn't meet your high standards..... then suck it up and keep it to yourself, that shows far more self control anyway..... you want to dwell in negative about someone else.... please do so alone. I'd rather hear a good story than have to listen to a bunch of negative whining.....
Not that a person can't whine...... just start your own thread, bring plenty of cheese and own it.... all of it.....
Good for her. Made a good shot with sharp sticks. Great buck. Congrats! It's not that hard.....for most anyway....
If you knew that young woman in the first post, would you still think it is funny? Also, when you are on facebook and someone posts a picture of their baby, you might think "not an attractive baby", but I bet you don't post those thoughts.
Many of the posts above, driven particularly by one real d bag IMO, suggest there are some really shallow folks around. Huh, who woulda ever thunk that would be the case on the internet! Actually, it's easy to think that all of the like-minded folks on Bowsite are good people. Many are, but it's certainly not a universal.
Brotsky "gets it"! Good to use this thread to do some teaching.
txhunter, you're last sentence is spot on. It gets to my earlier point- just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you should verbalize it. It took me a long time to figure that out in life. Some get it much sooner in life than I did, some will never get it.
Perfect description.
What happened on here is totally different than guy talk in some closed room. If Xbow up there was in a room was talking to Eva 1 on 1 would he be calling her ugly? Making passing remarks at her nose? (which I've never noticed any issue with, not that I have seen much of her, don't have cable) His assinine remarks will be on the internet until the dawn of time. Would he say those things on a FOX TV news interview? Well guess what buddy, with the amount of internet traffic this site gets, it might as well be.
These women are bowhunters. Where do you think they cruise the internet when they're bored and want some bowhunting banter? Could it be that they cruise bowsite and read these retarded comments? I'd be willing to lay odds they read bowsite. It's the best! Until you see Sh*$ like this.
Crusader Dad, I'm guessing you're not a dad of girls. Either way, remarking with your buddy that a women is hot or what not is completely different than what has happened here. A) it's not as negative or condescending, and B) it isn't in a public forum.
I will keep the thoughts about the girl to myself,
the deer, wow nice
the thing I was stuck on was something Saddlereaper pointed out
208 hours on stand, with a cameraman, I assume the cameraman was an employee earning 20.00 an hour, double that to pay work comp and taxes. just that would make it an $8320.00 deer. Yikes. just sayin oz

I'm going to go ahead and say it. Football was kooky this week. Some of the teams were just straight up dumpster fires. (Yes mom, I use it too much, but I can't help it. Too much fun.) Here's what I mean by that: teams that I thought were going to get blown out didn't. Instead, they hung in there, they fought, and maybe they didn't end up with the win but they at least made it interesting. But that's why football is amazing. Yes, blowouts are cool (LOL FSU), but games that are back and forth, nail biting, the ones that have you on the edge of your seat? That's what I live for. And there's this week's hot take. Now we can move on to this week's games and standings.
After my revival and total domination last week, I was feeling pretty great. Tied for first with the man that has taught me everything I know about sports, I was feeling a little cocky. But this is the part of the season when a lot of #darkhorses come out. My sister Molly, or Mol, is a big fan of the underdogs. The dark horses. I think that's maybe why she picks the majority of them every week. I've asked if there's a strategy to her picks. According to her there is not. Just randomly picking. and going with her gut. Or maybe she's just saying that because she doesn't want me to be wise to her game. Who knows. Between my sisters and I, Anne and Molly have always been way better at having a good poker face than I am. But each week her picks were getting better. It's just a matter of time before she surprises all of us.
This week's match ups were better. They were tight battles, ones that could go either way for each team. I even felt like Mizzou had a chance to win over Georgia after the way the Bulldogs had played against Nichols. Alas, I was to be severely disappointed, but I'll get to that game in a minute.
This week's games were: (2) Florida State (-2) at (10) Louisville, (1) Alabama (-10) at (19) Ole Miss, Pittsburgh at Oklahoma State (-6), Mississippi State at (20) LSU (-13.5), (17) Texas A&M at Auburn (-3.5), (16) Georgia (-6.5) at Mizzou, (3) Ohio State (-2) at (14) Oklahoma, (12) Michigan State at (18) Notre Dame (-7.5), (11) Texas (-8) at California, and USC at (7) Stanford (-8.5).
Now, let's discuss this week's games. First, let's start with FSU and Louisville. THE SEMINOLES GOT BEATEN BY 43 POINTS. This tweet by former Florida QB and Heisman winner Danny Wuerffel says it all:
The most savage of all burns. I knew Louisville and Lamar Jackson were good, but I didn't expect the Seminoles to get manhandled like that. At the end of the first quarter, it looked like it was going to be a close game. 14-10 Louisville. Seminoles fought back against Ole Miss two weeks ago after being down 21-10 at the half and could probably do it against the Cardinals. But here comes Lamar Jackson. 1st quarter, already 2 rushing TD's. He would have 2 more before the game was over, and one in the air. That raises his TD count to 18 and its only week 3. He wasn't the only problem for the Noles. The Louisville defense just ate them alive. They could not move the ball, or do much of anything. The Cardinals defense had 5 sacks on freshman QB Deondre Francois, and held FSU to 284 yards and forced 2 turnovers in what's going to go down as one of the worst defeats in Seminole history.
Now, lets move on from the sad Seminoles and move instead to Ole Miss-Alabama. The early part of that game, it looked like the Rebels were going to flatten the Tide, the Tide's defense looked despicable, and Ole Miss was rolling. At one point, the Tide was down 24 to 3 in the second quarter, and it looked like there was no way for them to get it together. But there are plays that swing momentum. Eddie Jackson's 85 yard punt return to make it 24-17 Ole Miss at the half is one of them. Cue second half. Remember the turnovers last year that helped Ole Miss? It was Bama's turn this year. Fumble return to tie the game at 24. Then Bama gets rolling. and then another interception to take a 2 score lead in the 4th quarter. The Rebels fought back and backdoor covered, much to my annoyance, but what a game. Ole Miss will have to get it together, especially taking on Georgia next week, but with the second collapse in 3 games, Hugh Freeze's team needs to do some soul searching if they want to make something of their season.
Finally, Mizzou – Georgia. Last time Bulldogs were in Columbia, the Tigers got shut out 34-0 in a shocking game that left everyone wondering if we had it in us to make another run at the Sec East title. We ended up winning it again anyway, but Georgia has always been a thorn in our sides.
I'll say this: I am proud of how my team played. This team looked like a team with promise. The defense shut down Nick Chubb and held him to just 63 yards. Drew Lock looked better, but the late game interceptions and penalties, they will kill you every time. Mizzou turned over the ball 5 times, 4 of those coming in the second half. So I watched, with a sinking sensation in my gut, as Georgia, a team I've grown up loathing, beat Mizzou by one in Columbia. But the bright side? Mizzou's offense showed promise. And that's more then I thought I was going to see this season from them. So while this loss hurts, the team is moving in the right direction.
Now to this week's picks. My sister Molly, who doesn't watch sports, got her picks in first, and as I tweeted out earlier this week, they were the fire emoji. They were smart, and well thought out, and she could be a #darkhorse.
Joe: Louisville, Tide, Oklahoma State, Les Miles, War Eagle, Mizzou!!!, Wagons, Catholics, Stanford, Stronghorns 35 California 20. Just so everyone knows, this is exactly how he texted me this on Thursday. Once again, my dad just kinda wins.
Rosemary: Louisville, Alabama, Oklahoma State, LSU, Texas A&M, Georgia, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Stanford, Texas 34 Cal 24
MK: Louisville, Alabama, Pittsburgh, LSU, Texas A&M, Mizzou, Oklahoma, Notre Dame, Stanford, Texas 35 Cal 24
Anne: FSU, Alabama, Oklahoma State, LSU, Texas A&M, Georgia, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Stanford, Texas 24 Cal 14
Sarah: Louisville, Alabama, Oklahoma State, LSU, Georgia, Ohio State, Notre Dame, USC, Texas 45 Cal 36
Pop-Pop: FSU, Alabama, Pittsburgh, Mississippi State, Texas A&M, Georgia, Ohio State, Michigan State, USC, Texas 24 Cal 20
Molly: FSU, Ole Miss, Pittsburgh, Mississippi State, Auburn, Mizzou, Oklahoma, Michigan State, USC, California 28 Texas 24.
During the Ole miss game, we realized Molly was the only one who had picked them to cover. Naturally we we all a little surprised:
I had a feeling with her picks, she could pull off the upset. She had picked Mississippi State, Mizzou, Michigan State and Cal to cover or win. So, without further ado, here are this week's standings and overall rankings. Spoiler alert: We all fail miserably.
- Molly (5-5) picked Cal to win
- Rosemary (5-5) picked Texas to win
- Pop-Pop (4-6) best Texas score
- Sarah (4-6) second best Texas score
- Anne (4-6) third best Texas score
- MK (4-6) fourth best Texas score
- Joe (4-6)
Mol, reminding us all that sometimes, over excitement is not needed, and the afore mentioned poker face is the way to win the game.
Overall standings:
- Joe and MK (19-10)
- Rosemary (18-11)
- Anne (17-12)
- Sarah and Pop-Pop (16-13)
- Molly (12-17)
So even though I had a pretty bad week, I'm still in first place with my dad. Next week's games are looking even harder, although Mizzou should be able to win over Delaware, and maybe bounce back from the heartbreak that comes with a one point loss at home. Until then, let's continue to laugh at FSU for losing by 43.

So you have written some great music and would like to sell your songs to artists who are looking for great material, but you are unsure of how to go about it. Well this post will hopefully give you a little insight on how to get your music to the right people who can "do something" with it.
The most likely person who would listen to your music and promote it to artists would be a song publisher. Song publishers function as agents for songs and songwriters. Getting a song publisher to accept your song into their roster will guarantee you the efforts of someone pitching your songs to their music industry contacts. If you are consistent with writing quality songs, they may even offer you a development deal or a staff writer position which would definitely bring in some much needed income.
You might be thinking, you don't want to deal with the hassle of finding a song publisher because you would like to sell your music directly to industry artists. Well, without having a proven track record of writing good music and having industry artists use it, it will be extremely difficult to get anyone to listen or even consider recording your songs. Industry artists who don't write their own music know their time is better spent reviewing pre-screened songs in a publishers roster.

can I not transfer my progress to another device??
Yay, a two year old post that was never answered but I know the answer to because I'm in the same boat (Or skull ;) Anyway EJ if your reading this and have not gotten an answer yet, your semi long wait is at an end! By now your game is most likely giving you an "Etherweb Lost!" error with infinite attempts at retrying. I'm actually surprised there us still code running to give this error. About 4 years ago, Skull Island was in beta. After several updates, the game was set to go live and like every other kiwi game, many resources were sold for it. It was only a few days to final release when the programmers discovered some very bad issues with the data base and no way to fix the problems without causing more issues. The programmers went through a version that was slightly different and had no problems what so ever so decided to go with the new version. They also realized a lot of people spent money already on the old version and to have to look at so many accounts and see who might get a refund started to become another issue and headache. Skull Island was one of the newer games where if a player had the same email but had their phone replaced, they were able to update to the new phone without having to message someone from management to transfer their game and could continue where they left off without worrying about starting over again like many people went through with games like Shipwreck. Using the newer code, the programmers made it so anyone with a beta Skull Island account would just have to log in, and once the system matched up the device and account info, it would update their account to the new version and at the same time transfer the users belongings to the new account then disable the old account to prevent the user from logging back in and getting more resources they are not entitled to. Management also posted a few notices to remind everyone to upgrade their game by a specific date or you would lose your paid for resources. EJ, you most likely upgraded your phone after the upgrade software was removed so are now unable to continue with your old game. You might as well just start from scratch if your old account doesn't have much in it. I believe the old skull island server is still partially running. If it wasn't, the old client would be giving a file not found error. As of 6/13/2017, I'm getting a connection lost using the old client which means I too didn't sign in on time a few years ago. I'm going to start from fresh and just write it off. What I lost in my old account isn't worth pestering the management over anyway, not to mention half of what I have in the old account is non usable and would give anyone who had access to it a lot of advantage over others, so I'm leaving mine retired for good. The Skull island one that is.
Please drop an email to our support team at support.rockyou.com about the device transfer. We will assist you in restoring the game progress to the new device
Hi Anna. If your refering to my old skull explorers account that disnt get upgraded, its ok to keep it burried. Its from the days when you had that gantastic HEROES game and one of yoir old techs and myself were using it to run tests. I have since started a new one. Thanks though.

Logistics is the backbone of industry and commerce. As a discipline, it describes the management and coordination of activities along supply chains. These activities include freight transport, storage, inventory management, materials handling and related information processing. A large part of logistics activities are often outsourced to specialized providers that provide cost-effective services. Research has shown that, at least in high income economies, the value of services is not assessed in monetary and service quality terms alone.
In making decisions, logistics professionals are increasingly taking into consideration external effects such as emissions, pollution, noise, and accidents. 'Green logistics' may not be an independent policy area. Rather, the supply chain perspective provides a framework to understand and deal with issues that are separate but ultimately interrelated. Importantly, looking at supply chains helps policy makers understand the interests and actions of private sector operators. 'Green logistics' may therefore propose a number of tools and identify emerging sustainable solutions contributing to the overarching objective of 'green growth.'

If you're a bit confused about the whole carbon issue, or need a quick refresher, have a look at this information. You'll know that there's a global movement to reduce carbon emissions by means of various strategies, including legislation, sticks and carrots, education and so on.
Many of us – me included – think change is not happening fast enough. If you think that, you have to start looking at what you can do to hurry things along. I'd been a member of a local government sustainability committee for years – I left when I thought that sustainability had been mainstreamed and there was no longer the need for a pressure group – and I am lucky enough to have photovoltaic cells on my roof at home. I recycle, avoid plastic bags, try to consume services rather than stuff, blah blah – but the truth is, individual enlightened action is not enough. That's a quote from someone but I can't remember who…the point is though, carbon reduction strategies have to become systematised somehow.
So, when a board member – I'm looking at you, Zoe Pepper – raised the issue of the Blue Room selling bottled water (food miles! packaging!), I thought I would probably find support for a carbon reduction project in my workplace. I did some research and found some other arts organisations that had sustainability policies or projects.
The biggie is Sydney Theatre Company who in their Greening the Wharf project are doing amazing things – PV Cells, rainwater harvesting and storage, set storage and recycling and much more. Many of these things seemed way beyond the reach of The Blue Room Theatre – we don't have the space, resources or philanthropic sponsorship to do capital works – but it was an inspiring example of commitment to a vision.
Our staff and board members thought so too and we adopted our environmental policy in July 2012. It's all starting to happen, and we are pretty excited!
